Darks Designs LLC - Darks3D

Here at Dark's Designs, we dream about 3D and that makes the work we accomplish more rewarding. I love the feeling when I think of a scenario one night and see the scene come to life the next night after hours of 3d editing, rendering and designing. Check out our older 3d Animation by DarKs Design, created with 3ds Max with MassFx simulation and a Particle Bomb explosion.

The rendering time was around 4 days and it took about 3 days to set up the scene. There are 850 Frames at 24 frames per second at 1080p. Processing your scene, or rendering, can take weeks or months if you are rendering animated scenes.

A good tip for someone who works on their scenes on different computers at different times is to make a new folder in the Local Disk root folder. This way when you save and transfer your files to another computer, you will have all your materials and maps ready to go.

If you save your work in a folder on your desktop or elsewhere, then you will have to browse to your maps folder every time you change computers.

I want to indulge in the 3D animation department, but I do love making high quality 3d images. There is usually more than one way to get the desired effect when working with 3d programs. For example, I made a leaf by first creating a cone object and modifying it with extrude, bevel, rotate, and scale.

If I wanted to, I could have created it from a box shape and played with the vertices to make a leaf shape. Either way, the end result is what was needed at the time, but it turns out, the cone method was faster and more accurate.

When working with 3D programs, I believe almost anything is possible and your imagination is the limit. However, achieving the results you want, can take alot of time. Practicing 3D designs makes me happy and I plan on getting myself a render farm for production purposes.
